​I HAD A DREAM - KCSE ENGLISH POETRY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

​I had a dream last night, I dreamed
I had to pick a mother out.
I had to choose a father too.
At first, I wondered what to do,
There were so many there, it seemed,
Short and tall and thin and stout
But just before I sprang awake,
I know what parents I would take.
And this surprised and made me glad;
They were the ones I always had!

THE CROW - KCSE ENGLISH POETRY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Read the following poem carefully and answer all the questions that follow.
Crows on the wing!
What grace as they swim
Rising and driving 
Like fish in the billows

In the willowy air
Or softly as feathers
Franboken pillows

Crows on the wing
What a symphony sings
The wind in their wings
As they swoop as the rise
To the sea to the skies
As they float in the light 
(Barnabas J. Ramon Fortune)
